When is Archer's release date in Honkai Star Rail?
The official announcement from official Honkai Star Rail social media accounts and on HoYoLAB tells us Archer's release date as a playable character in Honkai Star Rail: July 11, 2025. This falls in line with the Honkai Star Rail version 3.4 update. Archer is a 5-star Quantum character on the Path of The Hunt.
Like Saber, Archer's banner is also labeled as a "Special Collaboration Warp" and will have its own unique pity counter. From the verbage used in the post, it seems that the two characters will share one banner. However, we won't know for sure until they release more information. This banner will use Star Rail Special Passes - the same ones you use to draw for other limited-time characters.
The post does tell us that the banner will "be available over a long period of time," so we expect it to last more than the usual three-week banner cycle.
Players will also be able to claim one copy of Archer for free as long as they log in anytime between July 11 and the end of version 3.6. This window is a few months long, so you'll have plenty of time.
The collab will encompass the "first Penaconian Holy Grail War." As Holy Grail Wars go in the Fate/ franchise, this will most likely involve more than two Servants. So, expect characters like Lancer, Rider, Caster, Assassin, or Berserker to appear as NPCs!
